Interesting Ad

Multiply buddy blooey posted this on her site and I thought I'd share it to my contacts. 


Flap opens to...

And then the milk formula in the corner.

You can drink all the Enfakid you want, but basic MDAS will still tell you that

9+5 · 2 - (7 · 2)=14 (as proclaimed by the ad) is wrong!


Multiply  7 x 2 to get 14. 
9+5 · 2-(14)=14 

Multiply 5 by 2 to get 10. 
9+10-(14)=14 

Multiply -1 by the 14 inside the parenthesis. 
9+10-14=14 

Add 10 to 9 to get 19. 
19-14=14 

Subtract 14 from 19 = 5.


Tsk. Tsk.
